"What the...?"
The woman let out a scream that could wake the dead. "You hit me? You’re finished! Do you even know who you're messing with? My family owns the Titan Corporation..."
Nathalie cut her off, calling her out by name. "Miss Diana, right? Your brother was just here the other day, practically begging me to work with him. Do you have any idea how humble he was? I finally took pity on him and agreed. You don’t seem intelligent, and I’m starting to wonder if your brother’s as much of a fool as you are. You’ve been used like a pawn, and you’re all smiles about it?"
Diana clutched her wound, staring in disbelief. "You know my brother?"
Nathalie’s gaze swept over the crowd, and she snapped her fingers at Carl, who looked uneasy. "Aren’t you going to step up for your sister?"
Carl was visibly annoyed with his sister, gave her a disappointed look, and turned to Nathalie with a smile. "Ms. Nathalie, my sister’s always been reckless. You giving her a lesson today is a favor to me."
Diana broke down in tears.
Carl scolded, "Why are you crying? Are you trying to embarrass us even more?"
Diana stifled her sobs, sniffling miserably.
Everyone assumed Nathalie had played her part, and the drama was winding down. Still, Nathalie turned her attention to Greta, signaling that the real drama was just kicking off.
"So, Greta, tell me, was it me who seduced your boyfriend, or did your boyfriend kidnap me as a minor to save you? Can you be honest with everyone now?"
Greta was blindsided by the unexpected turn of events and suddenly found herself under the spotlight. "This... I’m not really clear on the details..." she mumbled.
Nathalie held up a USB drive. "Greta, I’m giving you one last chance. If you don’t spill the truth, I’ll let everyone see what’s on this USB."
